Hi everyone!
Happy New Year! We hope you are all well and ready to have a super 2018.
Here is what we have been getting up to.
Did you see our lovely art work recently?
We are learning about Van Gogh in #4thClass. We used oil pastels to create tributes to Starry Night, his famous painting. #creativeschools pic.twitter.com/9vearRWhOk

We are enjoying our brain breaks on Go Noodle!
Well, it is awards season! #4thClass are getting their heart rates up by dancing and dodging on the @GoNoodle red carpet! A perfect start to a wet and dark Tuesday. @OpTranRTE #activeschools https://t.co/FPAl9aWZm5

We started a new book.
We are absolutely thrilled to have started our latest novel, Warhorse. We’re learning all about historical fiction. Reading fiction like this is a super way to learn about history. #literacy #4thClass pic.twitter.com/Mvd5QHsoXo
